Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coffee lids, and more particularly to disposable coffee cup lids. Background Technology

[0002] Disposable coffee cup lids are sealing components widely used in ready-to-drink coffee packaging containers. Their core function is to create a sealed space by fitting tightly against the edge of the cup, maintaining the temperature of the beverage while preventing spillage. These lids are typically made of lightweight plastic and have a flat, disc-shaped structure with a drinking opening at the top and a matching sealing film or removable cover.

[0003] However, existing disposable coffee cup lids are limited by material and thickness requirements, and traditional lids are often too soft, exhibiting significant functional deficiencies in actual use. When users attempt to fit the lid onto the cup rim, the edges of the lid easily twist and deform, leading to difficulty in alignment and even multiple failed attempts. After drinking, the lid often becomes excessively stuck to the cup rim due to structural deformation, making it difficult to remove by hand and prone to spilling beverages. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing disposable coffee cup lids, which lack sufficient strength, and to propose a new disposable coffee cup lid.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0025] In the description of this specification, the references to terms such as "embodiment," "one embodiment," "some implementations," "exemplary," and "one implementation," etc., indicate that a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or implementation is included in at least one embodiment or implementation of the present invention. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or implementation. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or implementations.

[0026] Example: This example provides a disposable coffee cup lid, see [link / reference]. Figure 1-5 Specifically, it includes a cover 1, which is composed of a central cover 11 with a frustum-shaped structure and an edge cover 12 with a circular structure. Multiple reinforcing blocks 14 are symmetrically arranged circumferentially at the connection between the central cover 11 and the edge cover 12. A reinforcing ring 13 is clamped at the connection between the central cover 11 and the edge cover 12. Multiple reinforcing members 2 are evenly distributed circumferentially on the lower surface of the reinforcing ring 13. Each reinforcing member 2 forms a fixed connection structure with the corresponding reinforcing block 14.

[0027] In this embodiment, the center cap 11, the edge cap 12, and the reinforcing ring 13 are all made of plastic. The edge cap 12 has a W-shaped cross-section. The reinforcing ring 13 is stronger than the center cap 11 and the edge cap 12. The reinforcing ring 13 is positioned between the edge cap 12 and the center cap 11. Before the edge cap 12 is put on the cup, because the edge cap 12 is relatively soft, the reinforcing ring 13 prevents the edge cap 12 from bending under force. After the edge cap 12 is put on the cup, the reinforcing ring 13 squeezes the edge cap 12 to make it fit tightly against the cup rim, increasing the strength of the coffee cup lid. The reinforcing ring 13 is tightly connected to the reinforcing block 14 through the reinforcing member 2, making the reinforcing ring 13 more secure between the center cap 11 and the edge cap 12.

[0028] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the reinforcing member 2 includes two symmetrically arranged connecting blocks 21 on the lower surface of the reinforcing ring 13. The inner side of the lower end of the two connecting blocks 21 is fixedly provided with a locking block 22. The reinforcing block 14 is provided with a locking groove 23, and the locking block 22 is locked in the locking groove 23.

[0029] In this embodiment, after the reinforcing ring 13 is placed between the center cover 11 and the edge cover 12, the connecting block 21 is pressed down so that the inner side of the connecting block 21 fits against the reinforcing block 14, and the locking block 22 is locked in the slot 23 of the reinforcing block 14 to fix the position of the reinforcing ring 13.

[0030] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, multiple connecting grooves 3 are symmetrically formed on the lower surface of the reinforcing ring 13 along the circumference, and the connecting grooves 3 are located between two connecting blocks 21.

[0031] In this embodiment, the connecting groove 3 on the reinforcing ring 13 fits into the upper end of the reinforcing block 14, making the connection between the reinforcing block 14 and the connecting block 21 more stable.

[0032] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a connecting strip 4 is fixedly provided on the upper surface of the center cover 11, a connecting piece 41 is fixedly provided at one end of the connecting strip 4, a connecting member 5 is provided on the inner side of the connecting piece 41, and the connecting member 5 is connected to the edge of the edge cover 12.

[0033] In this embodiment, the connecting strap 4 is connected to the edge of the edge cover 12 via the connecting piece 41. The connecting piece 41 can be quickly connected and disconnected from the edge cover 12 via the connector 5. When it is necessary to open the cover 1 from the cup, the reinforcing ring 13 is pulled to make one end of the reinforcing ring 13 tilt up. The reinforcing ring 13 drives the edge of the edge cover 12 to tilt up via the connecting strap 4, making it easy for the edge cover 12 to detach from the cup mouth.

[0034] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the connector 5 includes two fixing blocks 51 that are fixedly connected to the inner side of the connecting piece 41. A forked groove 52 is provided in the middle of the fixing block 51, and the end of the fixing block 51 passes through the edge position of the edge cover 12.

[0035] In this embodiment, the fixing block 51 is passed through the groove on the edge of the edge cover 12. After passing through, the fixing block 51 is moved up and down respectively with the forked groove 52 as the center, so that the entire fixing block 51 is T-shaped and the end of the fixing block 51 is larger than the groove area on the edge cover 12, so that the connecting piece 41 is connected to the edge cover 12.

[0036] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, a pull plate 6 is fixedly provided on the upper surface of the reinforcing ring 13, and a storage groove 61 is provided on the pull plate 6, with a pulling member provided in the storage groove 61.

[0037] In this embodiment, the pull plate 6 is located above the reinforcing ring 13, and the reinforcing ring 13 is located below the pull plate 6. There is no reinforcing member 2 and it is not connected to the reinforcing block 14 below. When the pull plate 6 is pulled, the reinforcing ring 13 will lift up. The reinforcing ring 13 drives the edge cover 12 to lift up through the connecting strap 4, so that the edge cover 12 is separated from the cup mouth. The pull plate 6 has a certain height and a small width. After pinching the pull plate 6, it is convenient to control the reinforcing ring 13 to move in the narrow space at the connection between the center cover 11 and the edge cover 12.

[0038] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the pull member includes a pull ring 71 rotatably disposed in the storage groove 61, and a rotating shaft 7 is provided at the end of the pull ring 71. The rotating shaft 7 is rotatably connected to the inner wall above the storage groove 61.

[0039] In this embodiment, by rotating the pull ring 71, the pull ring 71 is rotated above the pull plate 6. The reinforcing ring 13 can be easily lifted by the pull ring 71, and the straw can be easily placed after passing through the pull ring 71.

[0040] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, a positioning block 8 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the storage groove 61. The end of the positioning block 8 is provided with an inclined surface. The positioning block 8 is used to fix the pull ring 71 in the storage groove 61. The inclined surface at the end of the positioning block 8 and the pull ring 71 are positioned by friction.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
